Royal Mac e liquid - vapecon car park

[shaunnadan]

Hallo people

So after thoroughly enjoying myself at vapecon I get to my car and find a flyer attached to the windscreen.

Normally I ignore these but this persistent flyer didn't flap off as I turned the wipers on so I left it till I got home.

I pick it up to throw it away and I find a "amateur -ish" home printed flyer for e liquid!

Was there somebody canvassing in the car park of vapecon ?

Very suspect. And advertising like that always makes me sour. He could have paid for a stall, but chose rather to literally spam people.

 

[shaunnadan]

So we all know the lovely vendors who made the effort to come out to vapecon and we are all comfortable vaping any juice that was on offer today.

Would you Vape this guys juice ?

What about the unsuspecting new comers who just got this "spam" and don't know any better.

that is so k@k funny!!!

Looks dodgy AF, IMHO.

But you have to give the guy a 10 points for taking the initiative... But then you kinda have to take them away again for the lack-lustre and generally amateurish look of the flyer (I mean who the f*** puts their contact details before the prices!?!), and of course the cheeky pedo-bear tactics with putting them on peoples cars...

Come to think of it, aren't parking attendants meant to defend against this kinda thing?

Really, I'm just sad i couldn't come. So I figured I'd be part of the fun, by chiming in

Royal Mac, that really doesn't sound like it'd cultivate exotic mushrooms (glow in the dark) in your lungs.*

wha ha ha "pedo-bear" just won this thread's funniest reply award dude!

i guess we could always do a community funded DDOS of this *respectable business mans* email account and have a go at reporting his phone line stolen... We do have his first and last name** after all.

*Read above

**Maybe i'm just not used to the surnames people have down there. but his looks kinda fishy to me...

What a cheek! He's probably been lurking on our forum for tips and recipes, now he uses our event to market his "Executive Class E-Liquids"?

Roy Maconochie, if you're reading this then you should be realizing right about now that you've just made yourself look like a real box dude!

Got this on my windscreen too, but now that I think about it, I think I saw some of this juice at the vape club stall? May be wrong?

Maybe @JakesSA or @VapeGrrl can confirm?

 

[shaunnadan]

As best as I can recall there was :

Sky blue , voodoo juice, complex chaos at the vapeclub stand.

 

[n0ugh7_zw]

Whatever the case maybe, some really exceptional entertainment has been derived from this

what a doo err I mean koos, its due to clowns like this that I almost went back on the stinkies, I was there for about 5 minutes and got some juice and an Osiris starter kit. Went to a party and did for the first time not want to bum a cancer stick of someone .... thanks to everyone on this forum. I feel great and don't smell like a stale bar after a hard day partying . Already trying to save and get the knowledge to get into the diy side. Totally hooked.

about DDOS on this guy from experience with eye-burst he is already getting crap service maybe that explains his business tactics and selling off custom .

just to add all the "personalized mixes" I can already get just by asking the dealers on this forum to deliver to my door at the standard price in what ever strength I want

 

[n0ugh7_zw]

To me... That flyer looks like a fishing expedition.

Why else would there be so many options? Is he seriously going to make that crap 30ml at a time, on a per customer basis? if he had the tools and equipment for that, he'd have a fancier flyer.. IMHO

Ah good you got my flyer. So how much juice you want?

 

[capetocuba]

Royal Mac se p...

 

[Viper_SA]

lol, not cool to punt his products at an event paid for by others, but at least he is trying to earn his way and didn't steal your car radios, or stand at a traffic light with a piece of cardboard

 

[JakesSA]

Yip we we did have some samples of this liquid at our stand, the owner is a client of ours and asked if we could get him some public feedback. Not sure how the customisation would scale to volume but everyone's got a hook and this is his.

The flyers were his own initiative though ..

 

[HPBotha]

Photos, or it did not happen

 

[n0ugh7_zw]

OK! seeing as this is turning out to be legit.

I take back 45% of the bad stuff I said here, and about 75% of what i said on whatsapp

Twas just, too fun at the time

To be fair, if he'd replied, or put a post up here apologising, this whole bulls*** would have died a quick death.

Maybe for VapeCon 2.0, the organisers can look at having a shelf or something at the exit. Any new juice guys or new vendors, who are perhaps too small to foot the cost of having a stall in the event can pay some money to have their flyers on the shelf? That way its not like its being forced on anyone?

 

[HPBotha]

wha ha ha whatsapp illuminati black ops gone a bit south there lol.whenever we get a response I officially apologise on behalf of the Cabal - well......baptism of fire, just goes to show the love we have for our SA vendors.

 

[JakesSA]

Sorry I am tired and not following, been a busy week little sleep etc. What are you babbling about?

Funny enough there were vendors who paid to hand out flyers and samples, they approached us beforehand and asked if they may and were charged a small fee to do this I do like your idea though, the admins and mods and other organizers sat down after the event and alot of very good ideas were discussed for the next one I will add this to the list, and see what is said about it
